I've played this game from start to finish a half dozen times in my life. I bought it new when it first came out. Still have the original box and media. 90s I think?

These guys are a very positive example of the Early Access and Kickstarter programs. Very regular updates with actual changes and improvements.

This was a day one buy until I saw extra BS DRM they are using on the Windows version. I'll get it and play on Linux if it comes out.

Day of Infamy is an absolutely brutal first-person shooter you need to play

If you've played Insurgency, this is an Insurgency WW2 total conversion. Started out as a Mod for Insurgency and the devs made it into it's own game. The movement does have a snappier feel to it which is nice.

BUTCHER from Transhuman Design releases with day-1 Linux support, it's brutal

Curious what other people's thoughts on how such a disproportionate number of indie games go the retro graphics route. Is it a cop out due to laziness? maybe trying eliminate scrutiny of the art assets? is the true target audience mobile? or is it truly nostalgia of a console generation?

As someone has been gaming for 35+ years and PC gaming for 30 years I grew up with those types of graphics and was happy to see them die (for awhile anyway). The developers back then were trying to push the envelope and improve graphics. They didn't intentionally create games with such low fidelity, it was the only option.

Curious what other people's thoughts might be.

The Long Dark gets a massive update, which fixes a critical Linux audio bug

This game is why Early Access was created. These guys are a shining example of how it should be done. They've released regular changes to the game and new content on a frequent basis.

They should just weight scores by account age and number of games owned.
